Rocky has also added breathable Gore-Tex® compatible knit linings. You may be wondering, why is Gore-Tex® such a great feature to look for when purchasing a boot? The reason is that the Rocky boots that feature Gore-Tex® are guaranteed to be durably waterproof and highly breathable. Now you may be curious about how the boots can be breathable but waterproof at the same time. Gore-Tex® is made with a microporous membrane structure. Each pore is much smaller than a water molecule, but bigger than a water vapor molecule, which means no external moisture – from rain, snow, sleet or puddles – can penetrate the membrane, but internal moisture from perspiration can easily evaporate. So, with this technology your overall level of comfort will be at an all-time high when you spend time outdoors in our Rocky #8729 boots. Are you hesitant about the boot’s grip? Don’t be… the Outback rubber outsole provides long-lasting traction and stability on rugged terrain. During the creation process, it is stitched on for flexibility – and double stitched at toe and heel for durability. A great outsole, a fantastic boot, what more could you ask for?
